π Welcome π
Although I'm sorry I wasn't able to find the time for a June newsletter, that a number of folks missed it tells me it's valued at least :)
For those folks returning to IRL events at Develop next week, give me a shout if you see me in passing, or want to meet up to chat about either Games Jobs Live, or publishing/WFH opportunities for one of the talented Scottish studios I work with ;)
